Bryan is en-route to Idaho to begin phase two of our journey west. He left on Tuesday morning and expects to be in Idaho by Friday night. He will be in Idaho for about 4 weeks, getting the laundry room and garage under roof so that the electrician can come in and wire the place for electric and the electric turned on so that Bryan can work inside with the finishing work.
As for me - I am having a blast with SIX new baby angora bunnies. (My new business venture - "Lanajoura Angora" is about to launch, and I could not be more thrilled with Habeeby's first litter of kits born on January 8th.) All the baby bunnies are doing great so far. Here are a few pictures of them.

trying to eat some himself! Bad bunny! He's too little to eat treats!
Well anyway, it's probably obvious that I am having a blast with the new baby angora bunnies.
Of course Latif and Arney are not at a loss attention either.
The other activity which I enjoy and which gets me out with other dog-loving people is participation in AKC
Dog Agility Trials. This past weekend Kelby and I ran at the Altoona Area Kennel Club's trial held at State College in the Ag Arena. The video is of our Open Standard Run, and as you will see...she is super, super SLOW. (Agility runs are supposed to be fast!) I cannot fault Kelby though, since our run was at the end of a long day. No Q (Q= "qualifying score") this weekend, but we'll give it another run at the Nita Nee Kennel Club Trial this Sunday.
When Bryan left, he charged me with the job of "holding down the fort".
All of our earthly belongings which will be going with us to Idaho are packed in a storage box and ready to be hauled 2500 miles cross country to our new home. So for now, "the fort" is our cabin here in James Creek (near Raystown Lake.) It's quiet and comfortable, and I'm getting to know my way around Huntingdon and the towns in the area. I have the easy job. Bryan has all the hard work. I am looking forward to joining him and settling in to our new home in Idaho together. For now, while he's driving, constructing, and making valuable contacts for his new business venture...I'm reading, writing, resting and relaxing at the cabin...and, raising rabbits, knitting, spinning, and dog running.
Thanks for sharing the video, mom! It was cool to see Kelby run the course. Now I have something to visualize when you tell me about agility training :)
